Recipe - Barbecued Baked Beans

2 cup ups dried
Navy or pinto beans
8 s lices
bacon; minced
One half cup up onion;
chopped
2 t ablespoons corn
syrup
2 t ablespoons chili
powder
1 s mall hot
red chile pepper
Three fourths cup up tomato
catsup
2 t ablespoons
prepared mustard
1 t easpoon salt
1 generous dash hot pepper
sauce

Soak beans overnight in cold water to cover. Fry bacon until crisp. Drain
drippings from bacon into baking dish or small bean pot. Add all remaining
ingredients to fat and blend. Drain beans and add to mixture. Blend.
Crumble the crisp bacon over top. Add water just to cover beans. Cover dish
or bean pot and bake at 325 degrees F. for 2 hours. Add more hot water if
needed. Uncover beans during last 20 to 30 minutes. Serve from baking dish.

A slice of smoky bacon rind used instead of the cut or sliced up bacon will give a
more decidedly country flavor. Brown sugar to taste may replace the corn
syrup. And canned tomatoes may take the place of the catsup but if so,
correct the seasoning as necessary with a little sugar, salt, cayenne and a
pinch of ground allspice.
